Doug,
Do you have a static IP Address or a DNS service? It takes a litle more than just an internet connection to host a website.
Do you have a domain name registered? Did you update the DNS entry to piont to the server you have at home? How did you set up the directory in IIS?
Post what you have done so far so that we can help.

Mark,
I think im getting somewhere.
I got the IIS installed and i was able to pull up the page under
construction.
I can tell this is going to take a LONG time to do, very confusion
and complicated.
Im hoping though with a lot of pateience and time i can get the hang
of this and get mine up and running.
Thanks for the help so far.
Now if i can just get my computer online through my router for the
out side world to connect to my server, website, ftp, ect ect.
Doug
